As we head towards the New Moon on Saturday, 7th May we feel our attention and focus turning inwards as we enter what some call the ‘dark of the moon’ phase.*
We are undergoing what’s best described as a system upgrade. Many are experiencing physical aches and pains, cold/flu-like symptoms, possible dizziness or vertigo, emotional upheaval and unsteadiness that come with such huge personal shifts and energy upgrades.
Our mental faculties may or may not be functioning to the standards with which we are accustomed, and this can and often does fluctuate during the day, and within short amounts of time, leaving the best of us feeling confused and at a loss for words when we attempt to explain what we’re going through.
One minute you may have a wonderful idea and the next you might be wondering what the details of that inspired moment were as they seem to vanish into thin air. My advice to you is to keep some paper and a pen handy, or even a device so that you can jot down your ideas in as much detail as you can, even dot points will help you to remember things later on.

As it is Mercury retrograde - I’m not going to go into detail here as I’ve discussed this many times before, and a simple internet search will bring up relevant information for you - as mentioned above, thinking may be crystal clear one moment and as murky as muddied water the next. This is not the time to begin new projects, unless you’re okay with revisiting and updating projects as they progress, which can be ideal for certain undertakings. This is a great time however, to review, revisit, research and to look into current projects to see that all moving parts are moving as they should, and to see what is helping and hindering the project at hand, you may even be able to clearly identify what needs to be re-worked or even released.
There are a total of five planets in retrograde motion at the moment and this is why you may feel that your energy levels feel sluggish at times - I’m sure that you could probably think of more colourful ways to describe this energy. Thankfully, this is not something that happens very often, so use these slower energies to recharge your body and soul. Pay attention to the signs that your body is sending you on a daily basis - also pay attention to what your mind shares with you as this is valuable information that can help you to determine any past conditioning, patterns, habits and limiting beliefs that have been holding you back. Aren’t you ready to break free of them?
This is a wonderful time to check-in with our Self, to tend to the areas that are in need of love, affection, attention and nurturing as the slower moving energies support our journey within and can help us to see where we’ve been self-sabotaging. I cannot stress enough how important it is to deal with these things now as the energies are supporting this inner journey towards healing. For once we emerge from this system upgrade, we will pretty much be thrust into the new energies of personal opportunities, awareness and a new-found form of abundance energy that you will want to head into as clearly and as cleanly as possible.

In order to facilitate the cleansing process that’s occurring at present, do your best to flow with what surfaces right now rather than resist. You’ll know when you’re resisting, because you will feel as though you’re swimming against the tide, perhaps even treading water and everything you face feels like an immovable obstacle that’s standing in your way.
Yes, the energies are challenging and exhausting on so many levels right now - and yes, it does and can stink at times, but it is all in preparation for the newness that is headed our way. Remember all of the prayers and requests that you’ve been sending out? Well they’re being answered, but you will not be able to receive them, let alone see them if your mind, and body are not ready to integrate the new energies; this is what’s happening for us right now.
I hope this helps you to understand why you are experiencing what may feel like a never-ending dark night of the soul - this purging and cleansing, followed by more purging and cleansing; but it is for something, something pretty amazing - just you wait and see!
Allow the tears to flow, get active if that helps you work through this ickiness, get creative if that’s what helps you, but whatever you do, ensure that you’re getting in touch with what needs to be expressed. Don’t be surprised if your Inner Child pays you a visit to help clear out old issues that you may not even recall - no matter what surfaces for you at this time, remember that what you’re reliving are memories, the actual event occurred a long time ago, and so it is safe to express what you’re feeling. It may be of benefit to speak to someone to help you move past this with a greater understanding of what’s happening for you.
If you’re having a really tough time with all of this, call upon Mother-Father God, Goddess, Source, your angels, whomever it is that you resonate with, to help you navigate these energies, to help you to understand and be better able to flow with what you’re experiencing so that you can step into the newness that is headed your way.
Be gentle with yourself as you travel through this darkness, remember that this too shall pass, and know that you are not alone. There are so many of us experiencing similar things at this time, so reach out.
“Anger may change to sadness, which is just a symptom of the cleansing you will
experience as you allow yourself to express an emotion for the first time after many
years of repressing it under a mental image.”
‘Beyond Fear’, Don Miguel Ruiz
I am available to support you as you navigate the current energies and to help you to understand what thoughts, behaviours, habits and beliefs are keeping you in the repetitive cycle that you find yourself in. Once you’re aware of what habits, patterns and beliefs keep recurring for you, you can move past them and into the healing that your soul is guiding you towards.
